Does Limp Bizkit still make music?

Correction. Fred durst directed but did not write the movie.

Fred Durst .. what a joke. Anyone here remember the national "contest" he threw to find a new guitarist for their band? You had to audition for thirty seconds and WOW a panel of cheese-moh looking PR people. The catch was, you had to play an ORIGINAL thirty second composition, no covers, oh and they recorded it, AND you lost all legal rights to the music you played by signing off on it, AND they (Limp Bizkit), gained the legal right to reproduce YOUR original piece .... so, in the end, they received hundreds of thousands of unique pieces of music they could use for free, and the real kick in the teeth is, they never picked a winner from the contest ... no one was "Limp Bizkit material". So you can probably tell, I will not be dl'ing the LB track. Yeah, he got booed off the stage at a Mr. Bungle show ... well deserved.



By the way, why so surprised that Rivers is penning a song for corporate American Idol runner up? He himself is a corporate owned stoolie. I might get total flak for this, but just because he makes accessible indie rock for disillusioned teens and adults doesn't put him above the corporate hierarchy of the "do-as-i-say-now" music industry.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww f*** yeah! Finally some Yellowcard! Now if they just upload an entire Yellowcard album I would be forever grateful!

Come to think of it I'd much rather have had a Weezer Rock band than a Green Day rock band.

@MowDownJoe: The word Indie doesn't even mean independent artist anymore ... it encompasses a diverse range of different musical styles ... basically, it's the now version of "alternative", just another word execs use to classify a brand of music that is, in their eyes, unclassifiable.

And you are absolutely right. They have tons of fans and could keep themselves afloat. Look at Ween, they finally abandoned their record contract, and still put out albums and sell out shows. Weezer just needs to do it.

I'm not too keen on having -more- Weezer, especially if they're new songs. There's so many tracks from the first album we could have that would be far better then what Rivers is comin' up with these days. I WANT SURF WAX AMERICA DAMMIT. >_>

Also, I was totally unaware that Fred Durst was even still alive. What's he been doing all these years, hiding away from all the people he pissed off? Still, never heard this song. The only good thing I remember him doing is a decent cover of Behind Blue Eyes.

As for The Offspring, yeah, they're pretty cool. Can't remember which song A Lot Like Me is though, and we're kinda getting over-saturated with their stuff too, but ah well. And the Yellowcard? Nostalgia will make that a BEAUTIFUL singalong. Here's to you, high school memories!

So, here's my 2 cents:

-While I want more Weezer, I don't like any of these songs. Plus, Beverly Hills would be so fucking easy to play.

-Limp Bizkit hasn't ALWAYS been terrible. I liked pretty much everything on Three Dolla Bill Y'all, and when they came out with The Unquestionable Truth Pt. 1 (a six-song album they put out post-Borland), I was genuinely impressed. It's actually ROCK. They haven't followed up with anything since then, but I'm glad they stopped on a high note.

-Like necros said, I'll be getting the Yellowcard song for high school nostalgia's sake. The whole Ocean Avenue album is pretty rad.

Did I just say rad?

I'll pick up Beverly Hills admittedly. And I hate all these bands with a passion, although Yellowcard does have a superb drummer.

While I too would love all of the Blue Album, you should really check out (If You're Wondering if I Want You to) I Want You to. It's one of my favorite new Weezer songs. Sounds a lot like their older stuff.
